1790, John Wallis (d. 1818) and Elizabeth Newberry, London, England.
Publisher John Wallis collaborated with Elizabeth Newberry to create this game, which was prized for its delicate engraving and skilled hand-coloring. Look closely to see whether you can recognize any of the figures: No. 47 “The Geographer” is Captain Cook, and No. 84 “The Immortal Man” is Isaac Newton.
